Gifts to My Old Orphanage in Russia 

That was nice that Mischa, your little sister, and the family went with you. So happy that you are helping the children there. You're a very kind young man. Looking forward to your next video. God bless you.

Job well done, Alex. Your birth father looks so proud of you as he should. Good luck to you in your future efforts.

Dearest Alex, this is what it means to be a global citizen. 💖 you are a shinning example.

I had a giggle when I saw the kids enacting the tale. It's a Slavic tale of the farmer trying to pull out a turnip, who get help trying to get out the turnip. It's a cute tale that is fun for little kids to enact. Great job Sasha

God bless all the children in orphanages and God bless all the carers and adoptive parents.

How nice that Mischa (and his daughter?) were able to go to the orphanage with you. That's so special. Thank you for your service to the orphanage, its carers, and the children there.

It is so remarkable and honourable a thing for you to do this as a young man in his 20's. Many people are so caught up with themselves their whole life. You are not. You take care of yourself AND others. You have so many helpful initiatives on the go for adopted people. Have a super day!!

Heart broke when the kids came into the room. You are doing great work mate keep it up

Alex, I'm happy for you. I'd like to see more smile on your face.

Heart of gold! Young man so full of compassion with your Acts of Charity. Great Mission & Ministry. May JEHOVAH GOD bless you in all your ways & all the Staff Members too.

You are very precious . . I'm sure you make your parents proud. I'm glad you made that journey to Russia, your homeland. I am from Alabama and Totally obsessed with these babies and children in the orphanages. I don't know why, but I am. Bless you for your good work and keep going back. Maybe visit other orphanages too. And maybe one day you'll adopt from there too....

То, что делаешь для усыновленных детей(я про проект imadopted) и для детей из детского дома, в котором ты сам когда-то оказался, - это бесценно! Это пример человечного отношения к людям. И знаешь, в интервью Денису Власенко ты сказал, что невозможно ответить на вопрос : где лучше вырасти - в России или в Новой Зеландии. Ты прав в том, что сложно судить о том, чего ты не можешь знать наверняка. Но знаешь, глядя на твою маму Татьяну, можно точно сказать, что ты бы не имел сейчас такой широты души, такого понимающего сердца, таких светлых идей и таких финансовых возможностей для их осуществления, если бы остался с ней или просто в детском доме в Архангельске. Твои родители - это подарок судьбы! И теперь, когда ты помогаешь другим людям, можно сказать, что это подарок судьбы не только для тебя, но и для многих, кому ты помогаешь! Желаю тебе сил и возможностей реализовать свои планы, ты вдохновляешь на добрые поступки! Спасибо!🙏

You are very special young man. What gesture of your behalf by taking gifts to thay orpanage that took care of you! You are very special and part of that is from your adopted patents

I'm very impressed with your dad. He's there with and for you to deliver the presents. You're creating some special bond with him. It's absolutely great to see the relationship growing. Congratulations on your journey.

You are a fine young man. Congrats to your adoptive parents who raised you well and gave you love. Your birth father seems also a good man.

Alex, You are so very precious! I loved when your birth Father was bringing the cart smiling😊 You are truly a gift Alex. Sometimes I cry when I watch your videos. You are a special person❤

Dear Alex, my family and I learned only today about your life story and we watched your videos in youtube with tears in our eyes. You are a man of extraordinary destiny and you have a great soul, which is full of goodness and compassion. I think God will reward you for the love and hope you give to all your loved ones and strangers. I wish you happiness and well-being.

Big hug from 🇧🇷 Brasil

I am from eastern europe and recognised the story that children performed.

I wish all those lovely children the chance to have such loving parents as you have had. Bless you for taking these gifts. You look so much like your father :)

Godbless you more Alex

Alex, the next time your raising money, put the info on ever Vlog. The night I went to donate I'd given my Debit Card to my sons fiancee to get me stuff, so wasn't able to, then it went out of my head! Can you just keep it running so anyone who wishes can gift when they can? I would, as when have a little more money than usual, m I can give then. Have a great trip. Your a gentleman indeed. I'm sure your Parents are so very proud! Keep up your good work, ill be watching.

Alex, you grew up well! Thanks to your adoptive parents for raising you well and your biological parents for their genes!!

Happy to see you doing good.

Omg every episode makes me cry 😭

Amazing history man from Brazil

What a beautiful moment you shared .thank you for sharing.❤,🧸 You are a storyteller. You describe everything so well so we can understand your experiences. You should continue on with this type of work. You can help many other people who lack your skills and they need help to find birth mother's in Russia. God bless you. You are doing some important work here young man. You are doing good work. ❤

You are golden, Alex. Such a kind, thoughtful young man. Those adorable children in the orphanage, I only hope that they are as fortunate as you to be chosen by loving families for adoption. I cannot imagine visiting the orphanage and not being able to adopt each and every one of them. Precious souls. God bless.

Good job Alex

Thank you for sharing so much of your life. You made me want to find my birth parents.

You're with your dad giving away those toys and blankets! I almost burst in tears when I watched him in the video.

This is so heartwarming. The women from the orphanage where so happy, you can see. I hope the boys and girls are doing well in this orphanage and who knows, maybe some of them will come to such a beautiful and loving family as you did back in 1994. Greetings from Germany :)

This is the best!!!!

I recently discovered your channel, and have already watch several of your videos. I am grateful for your reporting on your story, the beautiful reunion of your several parents and families! So heartwarming!

great job. :D

Asking GOD'S blessings for you and your family and the people in that orphanage!

Cannot stop watching you , good man.

Hello from California! I am shocked you have less than 10 thousand subscribers. I just came across your story yesterday from your viral video, but the quality of your videos and the content is so, so good! Thank you for sharing & happy holidays!

I wish I could adopt all of those children!

Thanks love...

love it... keep it up... from the heart...

Well done Alex

Bless Your 🙏🏿 Sweet and Generous Soul and 💝 Alex, You are an Angel 😇 from Archangel. Wouldn’t be wonderful if All the children from All the Foster homes and Orphanages in the entire 🌎 were adopted into the most perfect and loving 🥰 families Now! From a European multi-racial adoptee 💝🙏🏿

Big brother and little sister sure look like their dad, both of them!

They are s-o cute! Please let them dipers and supplyes

I too want to adopt

God Bless You!

I was adopted from Tyumen and I hopefully going to go there, u have the same life as me, but I don’t know why birth parents. I loved watching this thank you

Aww, all of those children are so precious, its such a shame Russia has restricted their adoptions. What a goal to have that house empty except for short-term arrivals. Re-introducing myself as a Birthmother who reunited w/her daughter over a decade ago. Yes, Alex, it's no wonder you were having problems sleeping. No matter how perfect the adoptions can be as well as possible reunions, there are likely some very puzzle piece feelings that are stirred up & take awhile to settle down. I've never asked my daughter how long it was for her after our reunion (pulls out new to do list) but by our conversations, I wouldn't be surprised if it was about 3 years. Those things all reunited adoptees know about...the contrast of the birth parents with the adoptive parents, the what would have/could have's, etc., but this is in case you have that one itch you can't quite reach & scratch. If you haven't read this book, I highly recommend it, it's called The Primal Wound by Nancy Newton Verrier. Besides your work around adoptees/adoptions, this book should give you an idea where you are on your own barometric scale. Good job on your latest achievement & best wishes always to you & yours.

Great Job! I'm sure you'd have no problem getting every orrphan there "sponsored" for various needs, gifts, even education funding. Please let us know if therre is a link for anything like that. Thank you, and may God continue to bless you and your wonderful endeavors!

Beautifull video! You were a very cute baby! Did you brought gifts for the caretakers too? If you did, what was it? #curios haha (Sorry for any mistake on the spelling, I am from Brazil... 🇧🇷)

God bless you

That's so sweet god bless

How is your brother doing?Hope as well as you💜

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

❤️

Would be good to set-up some kind of find raising for orphanages in Ukraine
